San Jose’s Tony Di Maggio’s Pizza struggling to reopen after fire

(KRON) — A popular Italian restaurant in San Jose Is struggling to reopen after nearly burning down last summer, due to delays to delays in insurance and construction.

Tony Di Maggio’s Pizza off Monterey Road and the Capitol Expressway has remained closed since the restaurant suffered a roof fire. Pizza shop owner Jack Di Maggio told KRON 4 that the fire started after construction crews ruptured a wire while installing a new air-conditioning unit.

“I just want to get open,” Di Maggio said. “It’s been a long 10 months. We’ve been struggling lately so we just wanna get back open, make food, do what we’ve been doing for pretty much my whole life.”

The pizza shop has lost more than $600,000 in sales since the closure, Di Maggio said.

The restaurant has served San Jose customers for 50 years. Di Maggio hopes to reopen in May or June.
